So this was probably the most awesome weekend (musically) ever!! I paid $20 dollars a piece and traveled 4 hours to get to one of the concerts.... but it was all worth it!
My first concert was at 7 pm at Minglewood Hall in Memphis on Saturday. We (my Best Friend went along with me) pull up and there is a line way down the block. We get pumped up as we wait in line and snap pictures. Get to the door and the mark our hands with big bold Xs. We scurry in and head straight for the stage. The first band has just finished so we didnt get to hear them. In fact I cant even remember their name! Then Down With Webster comes on... Holy shit they rock!!! Me and HB are standing up against the barrier on the left side of stage and everybody is screaming and jumping and having a kick ass time. They finish their set and as the next band is setting up we start "pushing" our way to the center front. We make it pretty darn close to... Like three people from the barrier. So Hello Goodbye comes and they do a pretty good job of getting us pumped up.... And then the reason we are there shows up 3oh!3... OMG!! Sean and Nat are dancing around the stage like crazy people. Singing and crooning to the fans in the audience. They are true artists. The kind that even live they sound FANTASTIC!!! And they are true performers. Dancing, singing, and engaging the audience to the fullest!! We are exhausted but excited. We start our 4 hour trec home!
The second concert i went to this weekend was at 1:30 pm in Nashville on Sunday. This time i took my little sister who had never been to a concert before. We get to Nashville and head to the event. Once again the line is way down the block and for a moment a feel a sense of distress. Am i gonna get close enough to shoot video??? Me and Sis finally get in and push our way across the venue to the left side. We get right up against the VIP fence and i cackle to myself! Once again i have defied the laws of nature and made it to the front of the freaking herd! I look down into the VIP lounge and think "These idiots paid $300 to sit there! And i paid $20 and we have the same view!! Bahaha" Then the music begins... OMG! Laura Bell Bundy, Heidi Newfield, Luke Brian, Dierks Bentley, Miranda Lambert, and countless more jam out for 6 hours of soul-touching country music. Needless to say my musical weekend rocked!!!
And then I got a $152 dollar speeding ticket... oh the joys of life :D
3oh!3 was great. thanks.
